What did Franco Baresi win at AC Milan?
Six Serie A titles and two European Cups, in 719 appearances across 20 seasons at the club.
The Milan record
He captained Milan through the Arrigo Sacchi and Fabio Capello eras and is one of a small group of players to have spent an entire career at one club at that level. Milan retired the number 6 shirt in his honour.
What did Franco Baresi do for Italy?
He won the 1982 World Cup as part of the squad and captained Italy to the 1994 World Cup final, which they lost on penalties to Brazil.
The Italy career
The 1994 final is the one most associated with him: he had knee surgery weeks before the tournament, returned to captain the side, and missed his penalty in the shoot-out. He won 81 caps.
What was Franco Baresi's role in the Milan defence?
He played as a sweeper, reading the game in front of the back line rather than marking man to man.
The sweeper role
That role is why his partnership with Paolo Maldini and Mauro Tassotti is treated as the template for Italian defending of the era. He was also short for a centre-back, which is part of why his positioning was so studied.
Which Franco Baresi shirt should I buy?
A Milan shirt from the 1989 or 1990 European Cup seasons carries the peak, with the Italy 1994 kit as the other main option.
Milan or Italy
He wore 6 at Milan, the number the club retired, and a different number for Italy, so check the product page before printing. Milan is the largest block on this rail, with Italy behind it.
What are the delivery windows and size chart for Franco Baresi shirts?
Nine adult sizes on a chest measurement, dispatch in 1-3 working days, 7-15 days standard shipping or 5-7 express.
Retro sizing and returns
1980s and 1990s Milan kits are cut much narrower than modern shirts, so take the larger size if you are between two and check the chest chart. Free printing adds 3-7 days, and returns are free for 30 days.
